New technology to improve capability for clinical radiopharmaceutical production Jan 1, 2019 - Feb 28, 2022
Medical imaging techniques rely on radioactive atoms that don't last for a long time and so methods need to be developed to handle them on hospital sites or close by. Essentially this is drug factory near to the patient as the material is decaying al... Read More about New technology to improve capability for clinical radiopharmaceutical production.

Development of a multipurpose small animal phantom for pre-clinical radiotherapy studies Apr 1, 2016 - Mar 31, 2019
The project aims to both reduce the total number of animals used for preclinical radiotherapy experiments whilst concurrently increasing the accuracy of such investigations in order to maximise their clinical impact. This will be achieved through the... Read More about Development of a multipurpose small animal phantom for pre-clinical radiotherapy studies.

Training scientists to develop and Image materials for Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine (iTERM) Oct 1, 2013 - Sep 30, 2017
With an increasingly aging population, new treatment solutions for diseased, defective, or damaged tissues need to be developed. Although human donor material would be preferable for these purposes, this is often not available and often associated wi...
